The podcast begins by unpacking the Prime Minister’s visit to NATO and the proposed Australia-EU free trade agreement, before looking into the benefits and risks behind the RAAF’s deployment of an E-7A Wedgetail to Germany.
Dougherty, Kuper, and Garman then unpack the $1 billion agreement to export 100 Brisbane-made Boxer heavy weapon carrier vehicles to Germany.
They wrap up the podcast discussing recruitment to the Australian Defence Force in the event of a military crisis, and the growing multipolarity in the region.
